Well it's that time of the year again. Silly season for us as we ramp up for the big annual Microsoft Event, Tech·Ed.

One of the things that will keep delegates amused this year during the breaks is racing 1/10 scale cars around a track. Doesn't sound that different does it, however if you look at Chuck's blog, clicking the heading will take you there, the cars are controlled by BlueTooth iPaqs.

Should prove an interesting interface.

We were called upon to brand the cars as well as the area and design the track. We left the hard stuff up to Chuck.

Tech·Ed is the largest single event we design from the ground up.

We do the sets, the booths for exhibition, the signage and the look and feel around the venue.

It is exhausting when you think that there is over a kilometre of system walls, more than 150 pieces of signage, 700 powerpoints that need to be run and over 7km's of cat 5 cable that goes into it.
